Theatrical Outfit continues its groundbreaking 2019 - 2020 Season with the ATLANTA PREMIERE of Slow Food by Wendy MacLeod - a new comedy with bite. Slow Food runs January 22 - February 16, 2020 only at The Balzer Theater at Herren's in the heart of Downtown Atlanta.
Slow Food finds Irene and Peter just wanting a quiet anniversary meal while on vacation in Palm Springs, but the evening heats up when a neurotic waiter won't bring their food, and everything goes deliriously wrong. This fussy server has the couple second-guessing their menu choices, parenting skills, and their very future together. Will their shared desperation get them their spanakopita or end a marriage? Everything (and nothing) is on the table in this zesty comedy about life, love, and painfully slow service.
Slow Food features a trio of Atlanta's finest performers. Marcie Millard (Suzi Bass Award Winner for Horizon Theatre's The Cake) and Matt Lewis (off-Broadway's Here I Sit Brokenhearted) take to the stage as the Irene and Peter, the recent empty nesters in need of some zest for their marriage. Dan Triandiflou (Alliance Theatre's By The Way, Meet Vera Stark) brings to life Stephen, a waiter straight out of a nightmare. Together this trio bring plenty of heart, laughs, and bite.
Ryan Oliveti leads a Suzi Award Winning creative team that includes scenic design from Isabel and Moriah Curley-Clay, costume design from Jeff Cone, lighting design from Landon Robinson, sound design from Daniel Pope, and properties design from Maclare "MC" Park.
